PRINCESS BLITZ made significant improvement on her local debut on the poly and showed plenty of speed to stay on for third. A repeat of that effort should render her a big runner here. MELANDIA has been fancied in every start to date and should've finished closer last time, when running an excusable 5th. She too has plenty of speed and scope and if improving, should be a factor. DESERT WANDERER has perfo- rmed better on the poly, but her turf form isn't too bad either. On her best form, she can go close. ELUSIVE FOUNTAIN had excuses in her latest effort, a disappointing comeback run when not striding out. She drops back in trip for this outing and if finding her earlier form, should be a factor.
